With KL Rahul smashing a century and Shivam Dube scoring an outstanding 95 for CSK against RCB, there have been some brilliant performances in the Indian Premier League over the last few days, but our performance of the week has to go to David Miller for his outstanding 94 of 51 balls against the defending champions.

Miller rolled back the years for the Gujarat Titans to play an outstanding knock for the table-toppers that had shades of his blistering century for Kings XI Punjab against Royal Challengers Bangalore way back in 2013. Chasing 169, Miller came in with the Titans in a world of trouble at 16 for three inside the powerplay, but the South African slowly steadied the ship for Gujarat alongside Abhinav Manohar and Rahul Tewatia.
After preventing a further collapse, Miller slowly shifted through the gears through the middle overs and shared an unbelievable partnership with Rashid Khan through the middle to turn the game on its head.
Khan and Miller helped the Titans score 48 runs off the final three overs of the game to take Gujarat over the line with just one ball to spare. Rashid smashed an incredible cameo of 40 from 21, while Miller hit the winning runs off Chris Jordan, finishing with eight 4s and six 6s in an unbelievable knock of 94* from 51 that gave the Titans their fifth win of the season.
